The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB

At 00:59:38 UT on 25 Nov 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 251125A (trigger 785725183.783164 / 251125041).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 161.9, Dec = -7.6 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 10h 47m, -7d 35'), with a statistical uncertainty of 7.6 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 37.0 degrees.
